Yuna said in a cold tone, "If I could choose, I wouldn't want to be your daughter. It's simply disgraceful.""You—""Are you only here to tell me about the debt?" Yuna asked. Herbert forgot all the words he had to say in an instant. He felt that nothing he said would get through to Yuna.Clearly, he had underestimated his daughter. He truly felt fear and panic at his current situation."Yuna, I'm your father," he stubbornly declared."You don't need to remind me of that all the time. Even if you're my biological father, you're the murderer who killed my mother. So, this cell is where you belong!" Yuna sneered with a vicious smile.She added, "If you don't want to stay here, ask your guarantor to get you out. Since he's capable of helping you get a loan, he must have a lot of power. He should be able to get you out, right?"Herbert fell silent, his eyes filled with panic."You—" He tried to get up, only to remember that he was handcuffed.Yuna wasn't going to continue arguing
Yuna received a call from Kiara. "Yuna, Grandpa just told me to ask for your opinion. He wouldn't bother Natalie and Nathaniel if you don't want him to."Yuna was calm. She did not care how Arthur found out that the twins were in Lakewood Estate since they would be traveling overseas soon. "Alright. I will ask Natalie and Nathaniel. I'll get back to you later.""Sure."After hanging up, Yuna called Natalie. "Mommy." It was Nathaniel who answered. "Nathaniel, your great-grandpa knows that you are in Lakewood Estate and wants to come see you. Do you want to see him?" Yuna asked. After a moment of silence, Nathaniel said, "Great-Grandpa is nice to us. He is nice to you, too. So we can see him. Natalie misses him anyway, so it's alright to see him before we leave."Yuna smiled as Nathaniel's answer was exactly what she expected. "Alright. I will call your aunt and get her to bring him over.""Okay."After ending the call, Yuna texted Kiara right away, asking her to bring
"Exactly what I'm saying."Ashton placed the prepared documents and photos in front of her one by one, "Take a look at these first."Yuna read through them patiently with a stern expression."Initially, there were no issues with this project. After all, I've been working on it for so long to prepare for jumping into a new field. "I didn't expect such problems to arise in the blink of an eye. But the more I think about it, the stranger it seems. "The whole thing felt like a perfect scheme that suddenly took place. I decided to investigate further, and to my surprise, Yvan was involved. "Maybe you can't believe it. You might even think Yvan had no reason to do such a thing. And to be honest, I had trouble believing it at first. But with proof before our eyes now, there's no debate about it," he said. Yuna's expression grew somber.Ashton looked at the change in her expression and calmly took a sip of tea, his eyes gleaming. When he put down the teacup, he said, "I know you
Arthur held the children's hands and happily sat on the couch. He asked them how they had been during this time, conspicuously avoiding the topic of Yvan and Yuna.Natalie was a little chatterbox, which amused Arthur.Meanwhile, Nathaniel remained focused on the door. Yuna mentioned she would be back soon, yet was nowhere to be seen even though Arthur had already arrived. Kiara noticed his unease and asked softly, "What's wrong?""Mommy said she would be here soon, but she hasn't arrived yet.""It's normal. Your mommy has to manage the whole company now. She might have gotten delayed due to some last-minute issues. Don't worry," Kiara reassured him.Nathaniel had no choice but to stop worrying about it.In the kitchen, Aunty Lucy had finished preparing lunch and smiled at them. " Mr. Jenkins Senior, Ms. Jenkins, Natalie, Nathaniel, shall we have lunch now?"Natalie held Arthur's hand and said, "Great-Grandpa, let's go. Aunty Lucy's food is delicious.""Alright, let's eat."N
A few minutes later, Ashton was about to check on Yuna when his assistant entered nervously. "Mr. Yale, Ms. Feron has left. She said it would be inconvenient for you if she stayed here, so she went back to rest."Ashton's expression darkened upon hearing that Yuna had left so quickly. "Did she sense something was wrong, or did she simply want to leave?" he wondered. As Ashton stepped outside, he called Yuna. She answered the call immediately, and he asked, "Yuna, why did you leave? You haven't fully recovered yet. I'm really worried about you.""Don't worry, Mr. Yale. I just wanted to go home and rest. I'm actually fine now, so you don't have to worry.""If I had known you had a walnut allergy, I wouldn't have prepared that dessert. It's the latest dessert from our club.""Mr. Yale, don't blame yourself. Not many people know about my allergy.""Alright, please rest well. If you have any problems, be sure to let me know, okay?""Okay."After hanging up the phone, Ashton l
Yvan took a deep breath, deciding not to argue with Gianna. Without a second thought, he immediately grabbed her arm and pushed her aside. Michael was right behind them. So, when Gianna attempted to retaliate, he intervened and stopped her.Gianna's expression darkened. She came close to losing to Michael before. Her irritation now escalated as old grudges and new grievances combined.The next moment, Gianna launched a fierce attack.Just as Yvan was about to enter the room, he saw Gianna push back Michael. She was about to catch up to Yvan, but Michael swiftly got back on his feet and once again blocked her path.Meanwhile, Yvan had entered the room and saw Yuna lying on the bed, resting.He knelt by the bedside and checked her pulse on her neck. Then, he answered a call from Lucian, who asked, "How's Yuna doing now?""Her pulse is a bit slow," Yvan said. "I already sent the medication, didn't I? Inject it directly into her arm. I've taught you how," Lucian said. "Ho
"Why are you here? And how did you know about this?" Yuna asked, her cool gaze fixed on him."Grandpa went to visit Natalie and Nathaniel at Lakewood Estate. It didn't make sense for you not to return, so when I noticed you hadn't arrived, I had someone look into it." "We found out that you were with Ashton. I had people nearby check on you, and they discovered you were in trouble. So, I got the allergy shot from Lucian and came to you," Yvan explained."Don't you realize you were in great danger just now?" he asked."I've already taken allergy medicine. All I need is some rest," she replied indifferently and avoided looking at him. "If all you needed was a little rest, then why did your pulse weaken?" Yvan reprimanded her for neglecting her health. "Lucian mentioned that everyone's body is different, and so are allergic reactions. Just because the rash on your skin started fading doesn't mean you're completely fine.""Thank you," she said softly. She still felt a bit light
"If only I didn't have to hide my identity and refrain from showing my skills," Gianna thought. "I would have knocked this guy down." Due to her concerns, she and him were evenly matched at this point. Michael knew when to stop, and he did not intend to fight Gianna. His only goal was to prevent her from disrupting Yvan's affairs."Dr. Storm."Lucian smiled and waved his hand. "Keep it down. I'm leaving for now. Call me if you need anything."With that, he left.Gianna glared at Michael. "Are all you men so shameless?" she asked in a cold, hard tone. Michael did not want to argue with her. So, he patiently replied, "Mr. Jenkins knows Ms. Feron, and he merely came to rescue her."Gianna snorted. "Fine, I've already thanked you. But now that Ms. Feron is fine, why haven't you left yet?"Before Michael could respond, she stepped up to him and said, "As long as Ms. Feron gives me the word, I won't hold back like I did just now. I can even take on your boss!""Lady, there's no
At that moment, Natalie and Nathaniel were hiding in the bathroom. Natalie stared at Nathaniel, who was working on his laptop while sitting on the toilet bowl. "Nathaniel, is this alright?" "Why not? If he doesn't suffer from some trouble before he marries Mommy, he won't appreciate her in the future." "You're right. I suggest you make things harder for him then." "I think the same." And so, the kids set up something for them. After getting out of the car, Yvan and the others got into the elevator. Then, it suddenly stopped. Before they could react, a cartoon man appeared on the screen in the elevator. He then told them to solve some problems before the elevator could go up. Surprised, Gabriel said, "The bridesmaids are smart, aren't they? They've actually set up something like this for us." Lucian chuckled and said, "It's probably done by a computer genius." Yvan agreed to answer. Then, they started answering the questions. The bridesmaids were waiting for the groo
When Natalie and Nathaniel found out that Kiara was pregnant with Harry's child, they were overjoyed. That meant they were going to have a younger cousin. They also wanted to join in when they heard that their parents were going to have a wedding. They even wanted to get involved in the wedding decoration. Of course, Yvan let them do what they wanted. Considering the fact that Kiara got pregnant, she and Harry would be having their wedding first. Although they didn't have much time, the Jenkins family helped in setting the best wedding they could afford. It was rare for the Jenkins family to be so lively and busy. Since Harry was an orphan, Sherry and Yuna were his only family who would be attending the wedding. His ex-colleagues and workers in his club would be invited as well. At the wedding, Sherry and Yuna watched as they exchanged rings and vows. They were touched at the sight. They hugged each other with tears streaming down their faces. Sherry said, "I though
Because of Kiara's news, Yvan and Yuna didn't have the chance to enjoy a candlelight dinner. They headed over to see Kiara. They arrived at Harry's club. At that moment, Kiara and Harry were sitting in the office like kids who did something wrong. They waited for Yuna and Yvan to come. When Sherry heard the sound of the door opening, she told them, "Hoho, they're here. Better be careful." After that, Yuna and Yvan entered the room as expected. Without saying a word, Yvan grabbed Harry's collar. Kiara quickly protected him. "Yvan Jenkins, if you dare to land a finger on my man, I won't let you off!" "He's pushing you around!" "Bullshit!" Yvan and Kiara glared at each other hard. Stuck in the middle, Harry raised his hands high. "I will marry Kiara." Yuna quickly dragged Yvan to the side. "Are you going to beat Harry up?" she asked. "They're dating! Besides, they're adults. Since it has come to this, it's up to them to decide their future. I'm telling you, Kiara's b
Yuna pushed him away. "Alright, I'll tell him to come over and chat a bit longer then." Hearing that, Yvan became helpless. He pulled her into his arms. "I was just joking. I didn't want that to happen, either." Yuna smirked. Knowing that she only said that to upset him, Yvan said impatiently, "You really want to see me suffer, don't you?" "Is it too much for you then?" "Of course not. You can do anything you want to me," Yvan said lovingly. Right then, Yuna's phone rang. "It's Carl. Let me answer the call." Hearing that name, Yvan was once again frustrated. Compared to Ashton, Carl was an even bigger competition. Carl was the one who could threaten Yvan's place in Yuna's heart. "Carl." Hearing Yuna's tone when she spoke to Carl, Yvan wished he could end the call for her. After that, he'd find the nearest hotel and give this woman a good punishment. But he couldn't. He could only hold it in. "Are you doing well in Jefton State?" Carl asked. "Yes, I am." "I
Although Arthur explained everything to him, Jacob was still unwilling to accept the truth. He even denied it. Because of all the horrible things he did, Arthur eventually told Yvan to send Jacob to the cops. He'd be locked up in jail for his whole life. Arthur had no regrets. He could only blame himself for not teaching his child well. Yvan didn't ask Arthur too much about it. He followed Arthur's instructions and sent Jacob to jail. This matter was then settled. Yvan decided to hide Jacob's identity so that this incident wouldn't get out. It was also to prevent the Jenkins family from being the talk of town. Arthur allowed him to do so. …The fact that Yvan and Yuna had made up was sudden and surprising for everyone. They were curious about what happened between those two. Since Yuna was back in Jefton State, she decided to meet up with Ashton. "Do you really have to see him?" Yvan asked. "Don't forget about your promise," Yuna reminded. Yvan could only listen t
Seeing his reaction, Arthur was utterly disappointed. "That's what you want to believe." Arthur sighed and said, "Forget it. It was me who didn't take everything into consideration and caused you to misunderstand us. "You always thought that your mother and I side with Felix because he's weaker than you. But you're wrong. We raised both of you equally well. But you weren't willing to work hard. "Felix said he's physically weak, so he had to study harder than you. He wanted to support you and guide you while you inherit the family company." "No way!" Jacob's eyes were bloodshot. His mind went blank because of what his father said. But Arthur wasn't done talking. Standing in front of Jacob, he said, "You're the one who plotted the car accident against Felix and Yvan, weren't you?" "That's right." "You're so foolish. Felix has been weak since birth. They only managed to bring Yvan into this world through countless IVF rounds."His health has worsened since earlier on, but h
In the Jenkins Residence study, Jacob was tied onto a chair after being brought there from abroad. Facing Arthur, who was standing across from him, he had no trace of fear or guilt. Instead, there was only resentment. He looked as if he wished he could murder Arthur now. Sneering, he said, "Now that your children, grandchildren, and even great-grandchildren are here, you're probably over the moon, Father." Arthur had a serious look as he stared at Jacob. Walking toward him, Arthur sent a few slaps across his face. "You useless piece of trash. How dare you speak to me like that?" Bending his head, Jacob howled, "Why can't I say that? You're the one who abandoned me back then, weren't you?" Impatient, Arthur said, "Ask yourself if I was the one who abandoned you or if you chose to leave us!" Jacob continued to yell, "Wasn't it you who sided with Felix back then? If not, would I have wanted to leave?" Arthur was so mad that he clutched his chest and panted. Pointing at Jac
After half a month, they boarded the flight back to Jefton State. All this while, Yvan and the kids had been getting along. Their relationship seemed like one between normal families. The kids watched as their parents sat closely with each other. They then turned their heads away. Natalie asked with a soft voice, "Nathaniel, are you planning to let Daddy know about how you've taken so much of his money back then?" Crossing his arms, Nathaniel said, "He's rich anyway. He doesn't have to be bothered by the amount of money that I took him for." Giggling, Natalie said, "You don't dare to tell him, do you?" Nathaniel kept his chin up and said, "There's nothing I should be afraid of." "Don't worry. I'll side with you. If Daddy bullies Mommy again, you should steal tens of billions of money from him." "Smart girl." …Finally, they arrived at Jefton State. Harry and the others had been waiting for them at the airport. When they saw Yuna and the kids coming out, Sherry and
After that, Yuna and the kids had been accompanying Yvan in the hospital for rehab. At the same time, Master Eastin was discharged. "Are you planning to bring Natalie and Nathaniel to Jefton State after he recovers?" Master Eastin asked. "Yeah, I'll deal with the last bit of things here. I'll still head back to Phoenix City after that," Yuna explained. "I can't just leave my work at the research center behind." "Since you've made up with that brat, you should think about what's going to happen next. Don't rush things just so you can return to the research center and work," Master Eastin said with a smile. "Those are two different matters." With a determined look, she said, "It's impossible for me to give up on my career because of anyone." Satisfied, Master Eastin nodded. "That's what we're talking about." Yuna smiled a little and said, "Master Eastim, do you really have to go back to Phoenix City now?" "I left a bunch of problems behind when I was taken away. I have to
